How to get on board Comic Relief's celebrity in-flight comedy gig

If you thought in-flight entertainment couldn't get better than films on demand, get yourself onto BA's charity flight in March to watch a live stand-up comedy show in aid of Comic Relief.

British Airways is giving comedy fans an amazing opportunity to watch a special stand-up show by comedians Dara O'Brien, Jack Whitehall and Jon Richardson on Saturday 12 March for Red Nose Day.

The charity gig will also be an attempt to set a new Guiness World Records title for the Highest Stand-up Comedy Gig in the World.

The flight on a British Airways A321 aircraft will leave Heathrow's Terminal 5 and fly over the UK for two and a half hours holding 180 lucky passengers who will enjoy the special performance in the air while sipping Champagne.

Comedian O'Brien said: "I've performed in some unusual places, but never at 35,000 ft! I'm really excited to be involved in this unique event and raise money for Comic Relief."
